Great source of knowledge enable us to have a once in a lifetime experience.
Willy was with us for the first six days until he had to return home due to a death in the family. He was very personable and shared his knowledge very effectively. Our group seemed to connect with him immediately. He helped us understand culture of the people of Tanzania was a very good representative of the people. He displayed expert knowledge of the wildlife and vegetation we experienced and was effective at answering questions and providing in depth explanations to help us better understand the interactions between animals, the land and people. He displayed a understanding and familiarity of what was happening in each park to maximize our ability to see the wildlife we were interested. Alex picked up where Willy left off and provided a seamless transition and continued with equal quality with his own unique style and personality. We felt that interchangeability and quality of Willy and Alex is a tribute to the quality of service A2T is committed to provide it’s clients.
“Access 2 Tanzania was awesome! Visiting Africa and going on Safari was on my bucket list and A2T fulfilled it completely. My husband likes spontaneity but I insist on long term planning so when my husband told me he wanted to go to Tanzania in just over 3 weeks I laughed. Two days later he came to me with a plan that Casey and he put together. I was dumb-founded. It was not a canned tour planned by A2T for a group. It was a private itinerary planned by my husband and Casey to accommodate exactly what WE wanted to do and where WE wanted to go. We left for Tanzania 3 weeks later! Amazing!
We changed plans many times after the initial plan and Casey was very patient and accommodated us with no resistance. Casey always had answers to our questions and gave us recommendations that we would never had thought of. A2T didn’t just give ‘lip service’ they provided what they said they would and told us what they could not. I questioned this because they offer so many wonderful options and I wondered what we would actually get when we arrived. Another thing I was pleased with is that during our planning Casey did not constantly try to ‘up sell’ us.
‘Wilfred’ was our guide and he was wonderful. He is such a nice, good and fun person. We felt so lucky to have him. That said, we spoke to others from A2T and they also felt the same about their guides so it is clear A2T chooses their guides carefully. (We still feel lucky to have Wilfred throughout our safari!)
I wish I could remember the names of all the others that we met and who helped us from A2T. We didn’t run into one bad seed. It’s been 5 months since we returned from Africa and although the names are not clear in my mind the warm, wonderful and exciting feeling of Africa will never fade.
If you have the opportunity to go to Africa go with Access 2 Tanzania! AMAZING!!”
